Topic: Drum Does not turn (Read 3017 times)

LG DLG3788W dryer. - The drum does not turn when pressing start. The dryer "humms" as though it is trying to start. If I turn the drum by hand, sometimes I can get it to "jump start". It is harder to do this when there is a load on the motor. However, I can get the drum to spin easier when when the dryer is empty. I did however get the drum to spin in the opposite way once. I could not duplicate this a second time (from my previous experiences, this means there is a bad winding in the motor). I have the service manual, but haven't been able to do any tests. Any additional ideas or a starting point to troubleshoot would be greatly appreciated.
